Dr. Clare Johnson is a practiced Lucid Dreamer. A vivid nightmare when she was a young child—about drowning in a pool—led her to realize she could control her dreams, so she forced herself to wake up. Now, she teaches others about lucid dreaming.

This week on the Notcast, we talk to those who use their dreams as a personal playground. They claim to be able to control the characters and plots. So, are you ready to tell your own dream story?
